    That one would be cool (as well as an accurate Scourge), but I also raise you:

    I don\'t think I care to get most of these, but Cloudcover looks pretty cool and I don\'t have that particular conehead mold (I only grabbed Thrust and Starscream as far as Seekers go) so I might justify it. We\'ll see if I catch it in the wild. I should refrain from spending money right at the moment...

    Agreed on Scourge, except I'm gonna give it to Toxitron for that reason, lol.

    And that hurts as a big fan of Laser Prime, but man... he really needed a few more spots of paint. A premium redeco (with a fully tampo'd trailer, if you'll allow me to dream) would go so hard.

    Same, but since it has the G2 Autobot sigil front and center on the chest, I just might end up getting it in the end.

    Really hoping I'll be able to get Toxitron. The Walmarts near me dont carry exclusive leaders.

    Here's something fun, there's a broken sword handle in Toxitron's axe in the stock photos, most likely a mistake by the photographer

    You can spot the exact moment between shots when a sword broke

    Don't take it too seriously, probably an accident by the photographer and they probably forgot about it

    No, I know the truth! Toxitron jammed his sword too hard into his ax and snapped the handle like a twig when he tried to yank it out in a rage. Shouts and profanity ensued until they gave him a new sword. Toxie just has no chill whatsoever.

    ...cloudcover's the only one of these exclusive repaints that isn't fugly, I tell you wot. G2 was prime childhood real estate for me, but good lord stuff like this toxitron and that so-called jazz and grimlock are reminders that G2 was a crapshoot between good looking toys and toys so hideous one cannot fathom how they got approved.
    even if you say, "it's Fire Guts Jazz!" or something, it's still not handled well at all.

    In a few years we're going to get a documentary from Hasbro about how hard it is working with Toxitron
    Hey, Toxitrons cool!

    To me it's the face. It's solid orange all around.

    That, to me, is what feels "unfinished", and it wouldn't shock me if some of these decos were being tweaked and finalized but never got the chance.

    I really think they should have given him a red helmet, orange face, and yellow visor.

    I think it’s going to look fantastic in hand. The lemon yellow visor, medium yellow face, and creamsicle orange head are the kind of subtle scheme that doesn’t always look good in pics online, but is sublime in person.
